Chapter 779: 779. The Scars of Shame_1

Especially when looking at Elly Campbell, her gaze seemed to imply that Elly Campbell had seduced her son, and it was only after Adam Jones caught them in the act that he was castrated.

Elly Campbell’s eyes swept past, taking a step onto the plane before Adam, while Lily Lewis’s clenched teeth and resentful stare made Adam frown and stand in front of her, blocking her view.

"Mrs. Turnbaugh, why are you staring at my wife like that?"

Compared to Alva Turnbaugh’s knack for concealing his emotions, Lily Lewis was far from calm.

Especially when she thought of how her son was ruined by their cruel methods, Lily Lewis couldn’t hold back.

"What? President Jones, you laid such a heavy hand on my son for no reason, and now am I committing a crime just by looking at your wife?"

Lily Lewis’s tone was cold and full of hatred, but she also knew better than to mess with the man standing before her and dared not to speak too rashly.

However, such an understatement of the situation was almost laughable.

Adam Jones gave her a cold glance, not intending to engage in conversation, his eyes instead turning towards a man who also seemed displeased by the side.

"Does Mr. Turnbaugh also think it was for no reason?"

As Adam asked this question, a hint of discomfort appeared on Alva Turnbaugh’s face, for Adam’s subordinates had already informed him of the whole story.

The idiot from the Green Clan had messed up and even dragged his son into it—this was a debt Alva Turnbaugh was not going to easily forget.

Yet that didn’t mean he would easily forgive Adam for treating his son that way.

He might not care, but that didn’t mean Adam could act without regard for his dignity.

Thinking this, Alva Turnbaugh huffed coldly and said:

"President Jones, you put it as if my family had schemed against your wife, but it was Cam Green’s daughter and wife who did, and my son was just caught in their trap. Besides, in the end, it was Sophia Green who reaped what she sowed. Your wife is still here, safe and sound. Don’t you think you went too far with my son?"

Undoubtedly a veteran of the business world, he framed his son as the victim in just a few words.

Unfortunately for him, he was not dealing with some powerless commoners this time but with Adam Jones himself.

Thinking he could get by in the same manner without considering whether Adam would agree was foolish.

Adam watched the annoyance on Alva Turnbaugh’s face and laughed softly, saying nonchalantly:

"Does Mr. Turnbaugh really think that, had it been my wife that night, your Young Master would still have the chance to see you now?"

The implication of his words was clear to all present, and Lady Turnbaugh, Lily Lewis’s face turned white, not sure if she was angered or frightened by Adam Jones.

Adam did not intend to talk much with them, stepping toward the plane’s stairs. Before leaving, he said to the Turnbaugh couple:

"I’d advise Mr. Turnbaugh to take good care of himself."

After saying that, he stepped onto the plane, ignoring the resentful gazes behind him.

Lily Lewis angrily watched the Jones family’s plane take off from the airport. Turning her head toward Alva Turnbaugh with clenched teeth, she said:

"Are we just going to let the Jones Family off like this?"

Though the Turnbaugh Family wasn’t as powerful as the Jones Family, they were not to be trampled upon. Adam Jones had ruined her son, and she was not prepared to swallow that grievance quietly.

Alva Turnbaugh might have countless illegitimate children on the outside, but they were all kept in the shadows, and if you weren’t intentionally investigating him, you wouldn’t know he had other children.

After all, Lily Lewis was his assistant from the start of his career, and he was willing to show her some respect, but that was all.

Lily Lewis’s presence represented a clear scar on him, reminding him of how destitute he once was.
